Sunchokes Roasted with Rosemary



I have been getting produce direct from local farms recently, and one just up the road had sunchokes available and since I had never tried them before I figured why not. Sunchokes are a tubular-shaped, root vegetable of the sunflower plant family in season from late fall through early spring. They look a little like ginger, they are a great source of iron, calcium, magnesium, and potassium.

Here is a super easy recipe for them, they are unique and very different from potatoes much more nutty in flavor profile with a nice crunch.


Ingredients
  • about 10 sun chokes, thinly sliced
  • 2 sprigs of fresh rosemary 
  • a dash of olive oil
  • salt and pepper to taste 
Method:

  1. heat the oven to 400F 
  2. slice the sun chokes, add olive oil, salt and pepper and rosemary 
  3. roast for about 25-30 minutes
